Obama To Undo Bush-Era Rules On Abortion, Birth Control

Command + "z" = undo on a mac. I hope they use that a lot.

The Fox Wall Street Journal reports:

The outgoing Bush administration this week will finalize a regulation establishing a "right of conscience" allowing medical staff to refuse to participate in any practice they object to on moral grounds, including abortion but possibly birth control and other health care as well.

In transition offices across town, officials in the incoming Obama administration have begun considering how and when to undo it.

"We have a lot of work to do to fix the damage the Bush administration has done," said Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America.

"Right of conscience" to deny services? Don't you take the hippocratic oath as a Doctor to ethically help everyone? The third part of the oath reads: "Never to do deliberate harm to anyone for anyone else's interest." Seems Bush opened the door on a slippery slope of refusal to just about anyone.

Right to privacy. Separation of Church and State. 40+ years of legal choice. Women's health and safety. Bush attacked them all.
